Can anyone find some nice silver shoes for my mum

To wear at my wedding? She's in her sixties and doesn't want anything too high or anything too shiny. She also won't wear wedges as she doesn't think they are posh enough! I'm stumped, can anyone help?

Those are rather nice, I didn't think of looking in next. I'll pass them onto the mothership, she's a lot more fussy than me!

The low wedge (they're very low and probable not what she would consider a wedge) sandals in pewter are a lovely muted metallic and dressy.

The dune ones have already been vetoed for being too sparky! I like them though.

Or closed toe courts. Not sure what these would look like irl BHS

What is she going to wear? It will help in narrowing it down. What is her style?

I got some Van Dal low heels in silver from TKMaxx, they're a sort of posh wedge ie it looks like a heel as it goes in in the middle iyswim?

will see if they still have them

RooneyMara · 10/03/2013 16:09
